God's Presence -- November 19, 2009

Reflecting on the flight yesterday -- As we were flying into Charlotte, we were above a "solid floor" of brilliantly white clouds with a blue sky and bright Sun shining; when we descended we passed through those clouds, roughly, and found ourselves "separated" from the Light, and instead, in a place of "darkness" and rain. Isn't this the way it is for all of us, too -- we find ourselves in those "dark" moments of our life journey, seemingly "separated" from God. But, in reality the Light is there, hidden from our view, on the other side of "our clouds". All that we need to is to rise to meet the Light -- or to wait, for the clouds to pass and then the Light will shine upon us brightly again.

Namaste!

Rev. Mary Ann
